[QUOTE="Caliban, post: 115970, member: 284"] I don't know, he seems to understand the rules pretty well. [b][/b] Not true. It works whenever the opponent loses their Dex bonus to AC, or when they are flanked. Losing the Dex bonus to AC isn't the same thing as being flat-footed (although it is one of the normal effects of being flat-footed). [b][/b] Blind fight only works in melee combat. If you are flying 30' away, you are out of the tarrasque's 25' reach but within the 30' limit for sneak attacks. [b][/b] It will know they are there, but it won't be able pinpoint them because they are more than 5' away. The basic premise is sound, but this is the long, slow way to kill a tarrasque. And if the tarrasque does something nasty like jump or rear up (forcing you to back of or get pummeled), or if it moves under cover, it can gain a few rounds to heal, undoing all your damage. You could very well run out of arrows before it dies. [/QUOTE]
